The V if NCVLLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the Order of Elie Day for a Committees:A . llw whole Muse etc. the Bank Chatter and Promissory: Nett! Acts. Sit J. WROTTESLEY opposed the motion. lie depre cated the proposed measures, and called upon all who had heard the }tight Hon. Gentleman, and who ageeed with him in thinking the views it-contained erroneous, and the retnediei it suggested not likely to mitigate, but rather to aggravate, the evils, to unite' with 'him in . a determined resistance to their further progregs. He must beg the indulgence of the Iloese whilst he detailed the grounds on which hie , opposition was founded, and he was confident th a t upon this occasion that indulgence would he extended to him. He claimed that de gree of indulgence which the Hodse eyes always ready to bestow upon those who undertook to advocate the interests of large classes of men, upon those especially who undertook the de fence of what was more valuable than any other interest, the character of such classes for honour and integrity. For it couta not be ttenied that the character of the Country Bankers was deeply implicated in the charges brought against them. It was, he thought, a question on tibial very different opinions might be entertained whethet it was wise and prudent conduct on the part of Administration to bring the subject of the existing distresses specifically and formally before the House. This was not likely to any good effect, and might encrease, and he believe d . bad iu fact 'encreased the evil . M inisters would say, no doubt, that the state of affair] wes such that others would have forced it upon the attention of Parhament, if they hail abStained froni doing so. But he was of opinion that they would have done Wisely if they had merely adverted to it collaterally, to state that it was best to leave thinge to.themeelvee, expressing their confidence that the energy .and spirit of the, country would be sufficient to bring every thing round. If they had clone this, he believed that the distress would more speedily here passed away. Any notice of the subject by unofficiel persons would have been comparatively of no consequence. 'The mischief of encreased agitation and alarm which the country was pow suf. fering, were to be imputed entirely to the conduct of Ministers, !'he Hon. Geneleinan here commented with greet severity upon the letter of the First Lord of the Treasury and the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the Bank-Directors. Ile corn complained of the general and sweeping accusation it conveyed against Country Bankers, of having. aided and abetted the rash ereculatiens into which the whole kingdom had rushed. 1 rem this unjnercharge he would vindicite then), There was no Class'of men who took more pains to prevent improvident speculations. It was their plain interest, and they considered it their first duty, to make totery passible inquiry as to the con duct of their customers and the manner in which they carried on their. Affairs. If they discovered that any man was entering, upon wild speculations, they admonished and recalled him to the path of regular and legitimate trade t or if he were too obstinate to he recalled, they, from that time, withheld what. aver assistance and accommodation he might have been in the habit of receiving. The accusation lie would condemn as most cruel, partial, and unitise. The 11. abd 21. notes {slued by Country Bankers foraooth to be charged as the causes of the specultetions, when it wits well known that the first appearance of those mad speculations was at Manchester anti Liverpool,and their second at the Stock Exchange in London ; two parts of' the country.- and the only .two parts where no such thing as a one or two pound note wax to be seen. It would have been a great deal more correct if Government bad taken the blame upon itself. At the period of the 'South Sea scheme, a most whole some Act of Parliament had been passed to prevent the recur rence of similar bubble,. The virtue of this Act had been o gr n ea a t n ly a i c m ti p on aire b d ro h ag ow h e t ve a r K b a y in a , d t ecsi a i j o t n)inotfS t oc kd Company, rite proprietors of sense t team mills. The qpestion had last year been again mooted in the Court of Chenelfry, when the opinion of Lord Eldon aid not appear to coineide'with that pronounced by Lord .Ellenborough. The law was brought into a state of great uncertainty by times conflicting opinions. Was it not teen the duty of Alinisters' to get a declaratory act passed, when the wildest and most absurd schemes were daily brought under the notice of the Howie ? So far from doing this, they did just enough to prevent any body else from doing, it. The Attorney-General brought in a Bill which was suffered to ley neglected upon the table during the whole Session, Was he not then justified in the assertion that Government had been 'more to. blame than the Country Bankers ? The next subject upon which he would touch was that of the flank Charter, and here again was an illustratiOn (4.114 opinion that the Country Bankers were ill-used. 'Upon what security does the Bank of Eeglend hold its charter?—Upon the faith of 'Parliament. Upon what does the right of th; Country Bankers to issue one and two ponnii notes depend ? Upon the faith of Parliament. What gives the Bank a right to hold its charter till 1833 ? The faith of Parliament. What has guaranteed to Country Bankers the privilege of issuing these small notes till 1833 ? The faith of Parliament, Why should the faith of Parliament be broken in one case more than another? You get them into the Keret* and then all of a sudden you compel them to draw in their notes. The three years' notice is merely nominal. 11' this measure takes effect, they feel that they must as speedily as possible .draw in the whole of this part of their issues. He • supposed it would be contended that their privilege had been abused by the excessive issues; but he would ask, had the Bank of England never fallen into excess ? Who was it that reduced the value of the Bank note so low that a guinea became worth twenty-seven shil lings ? Could that conduct of the Bank have been consider ed as e forfeiture of their charter ? The fact of' the country circulation having doubled between the years 11122 and 1823 is fact easily to be explained. Commodities had doubled in ..price. The bills of exchange which the B a nkers h a d to dis count for their customers were consequently of a double amount. The amount of notes in circulation would be feund to have coin cided accurately with the rise in prices. In 182 corn anti ca!tle were twice as high as in 1822. In the latter quarter of Iti23, when the pressure in the money market was indicated by a Pali in Exchequer Bills, the amount of cool bank notes wasdiminietted.- The distress o f th e poor, pro' eced by the failure of ('gantry Brinks ' was a circumstance which none but time lowest of mankind coultl disregard, but it intuit be rem'. !coed, that no poor man nee d keep a bank note in his posses fur twenty-four hours. If he wished to save money, and hail Leto save, there were S a vings Banks in every part of the country which would protect him airainst every Clanger.

Neither was it upon the ,principle of these measures that he disiented froin then', his objecticine applied ouly to the moment of their introduction. He thought the ewe of the pre sent distress was a combination of great speculatioas acs4 exceesive !sines, reciprocally stimul a ti ng and promoting elicit other. In the yeere 1823, 24, and 2fi, is progressive incteaseof the currency tbok place, and the menufecturers were getting high prices ; but *lien the check took place, the citosequendea were dreadful. The failure of one or two Banks produced age renal run upon ail, shod rtroduciet the to hire of 70. H e wou ld attempt an estimate of the degree hi which the circulation of the country tied been diminished by these circumetances. Suppos ing the 70 Banks which bad failed to have beefed 10,000/. each titian the average, and this hethoUght a very moderate estimate s here would be a iliminution to the extent of three Millions and A half. If the whole provintial circulation had been 20 mii - Lone, this_ would reduce it to siiteen and a half. From this amount he *mild deduct fifteen pet cent. on account of the di minished issues of all the houses which had stood, but all of which had, aCit measure of necessary precaution, withdrawn a portion of their paper from cireulation. This would g iv e to t millions and a half ITIO t e, altogether a reduction of the provincial circulation to the amount of six millions. Wltist serious effects then might be expected to flow from further reduction of four millions which would be produced by calling in the one and two-pound notes. It was said their place would be supplied by &W. Itut how hi the gold to come? We cannot get it, eXcept in return fur our eits ports. We are not exporting however. There is a general nuignation. Although commodities generally' have fallen twenty per Cent., the Foreign demand, neither for Manu - - fectures, nor for Colonial Produce, appears to be stimulated. --Such iv the general distrust, that no merchant can get disc count for a bill. The importance of that portion of the cur rency which it was proposed to annihilate, was not duly tip predated. He was connected with a manufacturing district, in which th e amount paid monthly for wage; alone, and paid in thii description of currency Was not less than 200,0001. s and to the honour of the Bankers of that district, he would say, that during the late, panic not ,one of them had failed. 'Die Manufacturer obtained inlyayment fur his goods the acceptance of a tnerchant probably of London, or Liverpool, or Glasgow. By the accommodation of the Banker in his neighbourhood he could get this bill converted into currency, but if the tearer's), was to be gold this could no longer be done. As to the idea us Seim mock- batiks he viewed it as a fallacy and a delusion. The nacre number ofliartners in a Bank will not inspire confidence. —The prudence of a Banking. Company, and its (thinner of conducting business, is more considered than the may,nitude capital embarked. Branch b a nk* from Bank of England; if it could be induced to establish them,twould, he believed, be productive of great good. He would conclude by expressinv his opinion, that in the present situation of the country it would be an act of madness to proscribe: the small note circulation.—. Ile had felt . it his duty to say. thus 'Much, and he hoped th e House" would well weigh the consequences be(ore, it adopted the proposed measure , bearing in mind ' how much more difficult it was.to build up than to destroy. LEYCESTPR commenced by inveighing against the mischievous prettgistive of century bankers. That prerogative it was-which had produced the tedundancy of currency, the great root of all the existing evils ; that prerogative it was which had forced Consols tip to ninety-five, mid set a ll t h e world running mad with speculations ; that prerogative it was , whlch e rennbined with convertibility, had finally produced tha creah of bankruptcy which yet sounded in our ears. That prerogative was not only mischievoUs in effect; it wan errones owl in'theory. ,It was destructive to the unity of power tree isate, which was necessary to any accurate knowledge of the amount actually ire circulation, and to any adequate observa tion of the symptoms indicative of excess. If the powtr war multiplied so as to be placers in the hands of every Country Banker all was abroad and afloat ; na knowledge of amount no vigilance as to the state of the 044.hatiges ; no regard how the exchanges operated up t i t i the ctitieney e or the cur , rent'y'epon the exchanges; one object.only was kept in view, to issue as much as possible, and the natural consequences follow, first depreciation, and then bankruptcy. Such were the . consequences of departure froM the principle' of unity of ' power, andkeaving the power to issue in the hands of a mob of countrybankers. A mob in the Mint was as bad as a mob at the helm, and the monarchial principle was no w h ere more se N .; ulty than in the realm of paper currency. He gave Minis ters the greatest credit for the me insure, and regretted only that it was not more extensive. Why nor eholieli the five potted mites also ? The time would coins, when they would tic found productive of similar calamities, and then We should hare Minis stem comingsdown with another conf ees io n tenentence. Il e approved of branches of the Bank of England being established throughocit the country. That establishment might know what it was about, and by watching the citetango', might regulate its issues. Ile considered that Joint Stock lintika would be mere bubbles; limit the responsibility and the discretion would bp limited, and when bankruptcy came, as it would come, it would be so much the worse for the creditors ; • who would probably be cut off with a shilling. Th e intended enlargement or' Sankt would not take place : subatantiel flanks would not telmit new partners, because they would not part with a gootrthing; 404 substantial Banks would not seek neveyertners, because the,y would not ptnclaina their present insufficiency, and hoist, as it were, the flag of distress. A larger number of partners did not imply a larger capital. The new Comp:inks would be fluenced by the genie, avidity to secure large profiti, as had Actuated the old ones.
